Alexis Black was charged with murder, aggravated assault and shooting into an occupied vehicle for her alleged involvement and knowledge of the incident, according to a Jackson Police Department news release on Wednesday. Black, 25, was taken into custody Wednesday afternoon.

Earnest Myers Jr. and an unidentified female passenger were driving a white SUV in the 5100 block of Ridgewood Road when Myers was killed by shots fired from a vehicle that was following the couple. Myers had been in an altercation with an occupant of the suspect vehicle at another location, authorities say.

The female passenger suffered minor injuries related to the crash after the fatal shooting.

Black was not alone in the suspect vehicle, JPD spokesman Sgt. Roderick Holmes said in the news release. More arrests are expected, he added.

Black had a previous relationship with Myers. They have a child together, Sgt. Holmes confirmed.
